Halton Region and the Halton Regional Police Service have developed a Community Safety and Well-Being Plan to enhance how we collaborate with community partners on issues that impact safety and well-being in the region.

The Plan recognizes that the safety and well-being of a community are shared responsibilities and outlines a model for collaboration, planning and action to help keep Halton safe and healthy.

The community was invited to provide input on a draft of the Plan through consultation process held during the summer. The final Plan was approved by Halton Regional Council on November 15, 2017. The Plan was formally launched at the Halton Community Safety and Well-Being Symposium on November 27, 2017.

Why a community safety and well-being plan for Halton?

As Halton continues to grow, it is important to take steps to ensure that we continue to be a safe and healthy community. This includes supporting populations that are vulnerable due to social, economic or health related risk factors and ensuring that Halton is well-positioned to respond to emerging safety and well-being issues. The Plan is a key step to achieve these objectives.
